Editorial Reviews

For 30 years and seven presidential administrations, Tonight Show host Johnny Carson (1925-2005) enlivened our nights with his relaxed style and exquisitely timed humor. Whether delivering a TV monologue, chatting with guests, or masquerading as psychic "Carnac the Great," Carson made even the absurd seem elegant. He handled his 1992 retirement with equal grace, leaving the show at the top of his game to become a contented recluse. During his retirement, reporters called him "the Garbo of comedy, the Salinger of television." Bill Zehme's truly intimate biography of Carson is the best extant substitute for those 4,530 Tonight Show nights and the pleasure they gave us.

Esquire contributing editor Zehme offers a tribute to Johnny Carson's 4530 nights onscreen across America. Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information.
